The house scene was one which would be on screen during the
fast pace of the chorus of our song. Therefore, I knew that the editing had to
convey the argument between Alice and Ashleigh as quite aggressive.
Firstly, I looked through all of my clips and chose those
which looked as though they would be most successful.
As shown below, I was able to take my filming and cut it down
in order to have only specific clips to put into my movie. This was helpful as
it meant that I can take more than one clip from each section. Due to this
scene being the argument, it was essential that we had different angles
represented in the movie. Some points in the filming went wrong. Being able to
use specific parts of the film was essential in creating a successful first
draft.
I was also able to use the 'Cross Fade' function.
This allowed me to have successful transitions from one part of the argument to
another. It also allowed me to maintain a fast pace through this scene which is
crucial in presenting the violence of the argument and the build up to Alice's
self destruction at the end.
Stretching the clip out allows me to adjust the specific
sections easily. As there are many small sections put into this part of the
editing, it is essential that I do not miss out any good parts of the filming
or have them lost behind the other video clips. One example of this is me
having missed out part of the clip where Ashleigh pushes Alice. I believe this
shows her violence effectively so, in the second draft, it will be ensured to be
put in.
PROBLEMS
Problems with this editing include
that which is shown below. This is a print screen of part of the first edited
draft. As you can see, Alice is laughing due to not being composed when arguing with Ashleigh. This has caused problems during filming at points as the two
actresses sometimes find it difficult to keep composure. This part of the video
will have to re-shot in time for the second draft.
